Apes (Hominoidea) are a branch of Old World tailless anthropoid primates native to Africa and Southeast Asia.

They are the sister group of Old World monkeys, together forming the catarrhine clade.

They are distinguished from other primates by a wider degree of freedom of motion at the shoulder joint as evolved by the influence of brachiation.

There are two extant branches of the superfamily Hominoidea: the gibbons, or lesser apes; and the hominids, or great apes.

A paddy field is a flooded parcel of arable land used for growing semiaquatic rice.

Paddy cultivation should not be confused with cultivation of deep water rice, which is grown in flooded conditions with water more than 50 cm (20 in) deep for at least a month.

Genetic evidence shows that all forms of paddy rice, both indica and japonica, spring from a domestication of the wild rice Oryza rufipogon that first occurred 8,200–13,500 years ago South of the Yangtze River in present-day China.

However, the domesticated indica subspecies currently appears to be a product of the introgression of favorable alleles from japonica at a later date, so that there are possibly several events of cultivation and domestication.

Paddy fields are the typical feature of rice farming in east, south and southeast Asia.

Fields can be built into steep hillsides as terraces and adjacent to depressed or steeply sloped features such as rivers or marshes.

They can require a great deal of labor and materials to create, and need large quantities of water for irrigation.

Oxen and water buffalo, adapted for life in wetlands, are important working animals used extensively in paddy field farming.

The English word spirit, from Latin spiritus "breath", has many different meanings and connotations, most of them relating to a non-corporeal substance contrasted with the material body.

It can also refer to a "subtle" as opposed to "gross" material substance, as in the famous last paragraph of Sir Isaac Newton's Principia Mathematica.

A calendar is a system of organizing days for social, religious, commercial or administrative purposes.

This is done by giving names to periods of time, typically days, weeks, months, and years.

A date is the designation of a single, specific day within such a system.

A calendar is also a physical record (often paper) of such a system.

A calendar can also mean a list of planned events, such as a court calendar or a partly or fully chronological list of documents, such as a calendar of wills.
